Podcast Episode 2: All Over But the Shouting

My second podcast is now up and running! In this week's episode, I discuss an LA Times article regarding the class action lawsuits that have been filed against numerous law schools. Plus, part 1 of my interview with a former law school classmate, in which we discuss why he went to law school. Also, I read an excerpt from Will Meyerhofer's book, Way Worse Than Being a Dentist: The Lawyer's Search for Meaning. Enjoy!

About Me

I used to practice law. But now I'm starting over. Why, you ask? Because I don't know how to do anything but argue with other attorneys and write mind-numbing legal briefs. It's time to develop some real skills, which is why I am now an administrative assistant.
